lyrics

Lo, He Comes With Clouds Descending
words by Charles Wesley, the music is a traditional English folk melody called Picardy
First Published in 1758, this song is in the public domain.
This arrangement © 2008 Subtle Conversation Music (ASCAP)

Lo He comes with clouds descending
Once for every sinner slain
Thousand thousand saints attending
Swell the triumph of his train
Alleluia, Alleluia
Christ the Lord returns to reign

Every eye shall now behold him
Robed in glorious majesty
Those who set at naught and sold him
Pierced and nailed him to the tree
Deeply wailing, deeply wailing
Shall their true messiah see

Those true tokens of his passion
Still his dazzling body bears
Cause of endless exultation
To his ransomed worshipers
With what rapture, with what rapture
Gaze we on those glorious scars

Alleluia Alleluia...

Yea Amen let all adore thee
High on thy eternal throne
Savior take the power and glory
Claim the kingdom for thine own
Alleluia, alleluia
Thou shall reign and thou alone, thou alone

Alleluia Alleluia...
